Apr 17, 2026 | Interview

Sumit Rai, Chief Product Officer, introduces us to elevate.io, a browser-based video editor built for team collaboration. He demonstrates a laundry list of impressive features, including real-time shared editing, reviewer feedback, cloud processing, proxy-based performance, stock media licensing, AI transcription, subtitle handling, and voice cleanup. Sumit also gives us a peek at their future translation tools that mimic the speaker’s voice, but in different languages. A free option and affordable pricing tiers help you try it and use it as needed for your projects.
